Classification of Medical Thermograms Belonging Neonates by Using Segmentation, Feature Engineering and Machine Learning Algorithms
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Monitoring and evaluating the skin temperature value are considerably important for neonates. A system detecting diseases without any harmful radiation in early stages could be developed thanks to thermography. This study is aimed at detecting healthy/unhealthy neonates in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). We used 40 different thermograms belonging 20 healthy and 20 unhealthy neonates. Thermograms were exported to thermal maps, and subsequently, the thermal maps were converted to a segmented thermal map. Local binary pattern and fast correlation-based filter (FCBF) were applied to extract salient features from thermal maps and to select significant features, respectively. Finally, the obtained features are classified as healthy and unhealthy with decision tree, artificial neural networks (ANN), logistic regression, and random forest algorithms. The best result was obtained as 92.5% accuracy (100% sensitivity and 85% specificity). This study proposes fast and reliable intelligent system for the detection of healthy/unhealthy neonates in NICU.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
